History
The Bart Simpson cocktail is a playful nod to the iconic character from the long-running TV show 'The Simpsons'. It's a relatively new addition to the cocktail scene, often enjoyed by those who appreciate a sweet and fruity flavor profile with a hint of nuttiness from the Amaretto. It's a hit at themed parties or among fans of the show looking for a fun and easy-drinking shot.
- Inspiration: The cocktail's name and character come from the mischievous and adventurous spirit of Bart Simpson.
- Popularity: It's a popular choice for younger adults who grew up watching the show.
- Occasions: Best served at casual gatherings, themed events, or as a quick party starter.
How Bart Simpson Tastes?
The Bart Simpson cocktail offers a sweet and fruity punch with a subtle almond-like undertone from the Amaretto. The Crown Royal provides a smooth whiskey base, while the peach schnapps adds a peachy sweetness that complements the tartness of the cranberry juice. The splash of orange juice ties everything together with a citrusy freshness.
Interesting facts about Bart Simpson

- Despite its name, the Bart Simpson cocktail doesn't contain any ingredients specifically related to the show.
- It's often served as a shot, making it a popular choice for toasting at celebrations.
Ingredients
- Crown royal: 0.5 oz(15ml)
- Amaretto: 0.25 oz(8ml)
- Peach schnapps: 0.25 oz(8ml)
- Cranberry juice: 0.25 oz(8ml)
- Orange juice: Splash
Crown Royal
Crown Royal, a smooth Canadian whiskey, brings a touch of vanilla and oak to the mix. Its richness tempers the sweetness of the other components. Using less might make the drink too sweet, whereas more could overpower the delicate balance. No Crown Royal? Try a different whiskey, but expect a change in flavor complexity.

Amaretto
This sweet, almond-flavored liqueur adds a nutty depth and counters the fruitiness. Too much could make the drink cloying, and without it, you'd miss that signature marzipan hint. Frangelico could be a substitute for a hazelnut spin on the flavor.
Emma Rose
Peach Schnapps
The Schnapps provide a bright peachy pop. They're essential for the fruit-forward profile. If left out, you'd lose that peachy essence, and if overdone, it could become too sugary. A dash of peach puree could be a less sweet alternative.
Mary Mitkina
Cranberry Juice
Just a splash contributes a sharp contrast, adding both color and a tart edge to slice through the sweetness. Skip it, and the cocktail may be one-dimensional. Too much can sour the experience. Pomegranate juice could alternatively add a similar tartness with a color twist.
Alex Green
Orange Juice
A splash of OJ gives a fresh citrus zing and brightens up the cocktail. Without it, the drink might feel flat. An overabundance could drown out the other flavors. Lemon or lime could be a zesty alternative, though slightly more tart.
